About the only paper I can use is the 20lb HP Multi Purpose paper. Maybe it's still an engineering defect with this puppy. Either way, whether conserving toner or it's a h/w bug, wondering how to negotiate Media Types according to the type of paper I buy (ie. 28lb HP Color LaserJet Paper - 96 Brightness, 20lb HP Multi-Purpose, or Bond/Stock paper.)

Following the instructions, I have the foo2hp working under Fedora 9, 64bit version. Monochrome seems perfect but color also appears reasonable except that with color printing, the black from the centre to the edge of the color wheel is about 70 percent from the centre to the edge.

Also note, that the firmware in the printer has changed (2008/03 update was installed). Does that make a difference to the color rendering?

PS. Was happy to make my contribution. Would be even happier to redo it if the color wheel in color print was as well balanced with the black circular ramp as balanced in density changing as the B/W wheel is in B/W print mode.

I will RTFM and see what settings are available to adjust balance. If I find a great setting, I will post that info here.

BTW, the link in the website for the Color LaserJet 2600n is wrong. Do a search of the HP website to obtain the link.
